Job Description

We are looking for a highly experienced and hands-on Senior Furniture Sales Consultant to join our team. This is a London-based role -- you must be based in the city and be available to regularly meet clients in person at our London Bridge show home.

Alongside your sales expertise, you will need to be highly proficient with digital tools, CRMs, and online systems. This is essential to managing a fast-moving sales pipeline and delivering a seamless customer experience. Please do not apply if you do not meet these criteria.

This role offers a low guaranteed base salary + commission structure, with the opportunity to earn 30,000-80,000+ OTE depending on performance. Rota based weekend work will be required.

About Us

We are a small but passionate team of creatives and entrepreneurs working with Sophie Conran to design and curate beautiful products for the home. With sustainability at our core, we have built a well-established range of handmade sofas and chairs crafted entirely from natural materials. These pieces are already loved by a growing community of discerning customers who value comfort, craftsmanship, and timeless design.

Our customers are typically design-conscious individuals and families who care deeply about the quality, provenance, and longevity of the things they bring into their homes. They expect a highly personal level of service - not only guidance through the purchase itself, but also thoughtful support in making decisions about style, proportion, and how each piece will live within their homes. Building trust and rapport with this type of customer requires patience, empathy, and a genuine understanding of design.

Because of this, experience working with discerning, high-value clients is essential. This is a role where success comes from being as much a guide and advisor as a salesperson, helping clients imagine and shape their homes with our furniture as the foundation. Many of our customers return to us time and again, so the relationships you build will often grow far beyond a single purchase.

Our mission is to create collections of outstanding quality that customers will treasure for a lifetime. We operate as an online-first business, with a private London Bridge show home by appointment only. You'll work closely with our senior leadership team and act as the face of our brand to clients in London, embodying the values of care, craftsmanship, and authenticity that define everything we do.
